Adult Social Care: The Cost of Inaction

Inquiry

Successive governments have presented reform ideas for adult social care, yet few of these have been implemented. This inquiry seeks to understand what this inaction is costing. They will investigate the cost of inaction to individuals, the NHS, local authorities and also to the wider economy and HM Treasury, focusing not only on the financial cost, but also on the personal costs and on potential benefits that are being missed. The inquiry will consider social care for both older and working age adults.

This inquiry is currently accepting evidence.

The committee wants to hear your views. They welcome submissions from anyone with answers to the questions in the call for evidence. You can submit evidence until Wednesday 11 December 2024.
